We have goslings!

At work, we have a Canada goose who has nested on one of the islands in the parking lot. We think its mate was killed in a car accident a few weeks ago, so we've been feeding it cracked corn.

Today, "Lucy", with a friend, has been parading her four goslings, who apparently hatched this morning or last night.
It's become today's topic of conversation and time sink as we watch the chicks follow mom.

I can think of worse ways to waste a corporate dollar.

Give us some pictures, will you?

"Some people juggle geese."

Good way to spend the afternoon. I hope the goslings do better than their paw.

yes...*awwwww*....

but beware of impending hilarity. There's a stretch between 'awwww-hood' and goose-hood which can only be described as 'ambulatory-alien-toiletbowl-brush-hood'. ;)

What a wonderful gift for you and your co-workers, Kosh. So much tragedy fills our lives that we often fail to see life's blessings around us. Enjoy Lucy and her babe's while they're camping out at the company parking lot.
